DRINK AND BUSINESS FAILURE.

Moderate drinkers engaged in
pursuits calling for judgment and
acumen. and who use liquors dur
ing business hours, end, with
scarcely an exception, as financial
wrecks, however successful they
may be in withstanding the physic
al consequence of their indulgence.
Thousands who retain their health,
and are never ranked as victims of
intemperence, lose their property,
wreck their business, and are
thrown into bankruptcy because of
tippling habits during business
hours. These men are not drunk.
ards, and only close observers can
detect the influence of strong drink
IN their department, but neverthe-
less liquor gives them false nerve,
makes them reckless, clouds the
Judgment, and soon involves them
in bad purchases, worse sales, and
ruinOus contracts. Sooner or later
it is shown that the habit of tip
pling during business hours is a
forerunner of bankruptcy. Let
every such drinker review his busi-
ness transactions for "a series of
years, and answer whether this
statement is not true.
Liquor acts on the brain in the

ed by a depression corresponding
to the amount of the dose. What
man wOuld expect to succeed in
business if he we're accustomed to
take, while at work, even very
slight whihs of ether, chloroform,
or laughing gas, and keep himself
all the time, more or less, under
such beclouding influences? ? Such
a man, even if able to preserve his
health, would grow reckless, lolna-
cious, and soon prove no match
tor a clear.headed rival. Liquor
is an indispensable ally wherever
victims are systematically tieeced,
and its effects are seen also in the
rivalries OF legitimate business.
The professional gambler keeps
"a free bar, but never drinks himself
when at the table; and, while a

advantages from the latter's self

it's victims not only in saloons and
gambling dens, but about boards
of trade and stock exchanges, and
in every line of business requiring
clear, cool head. Moderate
drinkers who attempt to do busi-
ness with even slightly excited
brains, are the men who are all the
time making losses and gong to
the wall.-ChicGgO Tribune.

All attempts to domesticate the
pheasant have proved abortive.-
An old hunter in Botetonrt county
once found a nest containing eigh.

ground, leading him nearly a mile

the eggs under a mOtherly hen,
aud she, in due time, brought them
out of the shells. But, no sooner
did they see the light of day, than
they "bolted" for the woods, and
were never afterward seen. The

half OF them ran of with shells

former was wounded. The matter
has occasioned great excitement
throughout the State, but the ac'
tion of the authorities is endorsed
by many, as it was known Tolliver
would never he taken alive.
THE HISTORY OF THE WAR.
The trouble ended by Tolliver'S
death began at the August election
in 1884. Cook Humphreys, TepubIi'
can, was elected Sheriff OF Rowan
county by 70 majority. A saloon
fight followed in quarrel over the
election. in which John Martin
claimed to have been badly beaten
by John Day and Floyd Tolllver.
In December Martin met Floyd Tol-
liver at Morehead and in a row
killed him. Martin was taken 70
Winchester to save him from lynch
ing. Six days later, on a forged
order, Martin was taken IN irons as
il to be returned to Morehead for
trial. At Farmers Station a mask
ed mob boarded the train and shot
Martin to death. While Sheriff
Humphreys was hunting down this
mob Stewart Bumgardner, his dep
utv, was assassinated while riding
along the road. County Attorney
Young several months later was
shot from the bushes and danger
ously wounded, as claimed by the
Tollivers, by Ben Rayburn, Hum
pbreys deputy. Young disclaimed
any connection with the TOlivers

rounded Humphreys and Rayburn
at John Martins fathers home,
where he and Humphreys we're
boys together, and after a days
siege drove them out and killed
Rayburn while fleeing to the woods.
They then burned the house.
Several fights followed in the
streets Of Morehead between the
factions, constantly growingstrong.
er, and twice the State troops were
called and peace compromise ef-
fected. The lasdtlme this was made
by Congressman Carutb, then com
mOnwealth's attorney, and Circuit
Judge Jackson, of Louisville. By
its terms Craig Tolliver and Cook
Humphreys were to leave Rowan
county permantly. Tolliver's re-
turn and practically enforced elec-
tion to be police Judge of MOrehead
three months ago was the signal
for a renewal of hOstilities.

A Train Run With Crude Petroleum.

The first train that ever ran, or

gheny mountains with crude petro-
leum as the only fuel in the locOmo-
tive tender and fre.bOx was the
mail train West on the Pennsylva-
MIA railroad that arrived in Pitts
burg Friday night. 1t came
through from Altoona on time, and
it came without a stick of timber
or a scuttle OF coal to make steam
for its motor. The train was drawn
by locomotive No. 40S, with engln.
eer Burbank at the throttle. There
was entire uniformity of heat in the
fire-bOx, without any stoking to
make it. The pipes from the 200
gallons of crude oil in tank i'm the
tender did the business. The ex-

A HUMAN BATTERY.
A MAN WHO POSSESSES A POWER
OF MAGNETISM THAT CURES
PAIN.

Two weeks ago the namO OF "Ja-
cob Beard, Nashville, Tennessee"
appeared on the register of the IT.
vine Hotel, the next morning it be-
came nOised about that the man
was a healer of pam by the means
of electricity, with which his body
was charged. At the time of his
arrival the Gazette, like a good
many others was included among
the doubling Thomases as to his
abilities however we made a para
graph mention Of his treatment, re-
serving our opinion on the subject.
Now that two weeks have passed
and the "DOctOrn has treated a
number of cases of long standing.
we have noticed the success OF the
treatment and now present to our
readers an interview with Doctor
Beard, and other facts connected
with the gentleman. DR.. Beard, is
a man nearly seven feet tall, bnllt
in proportion, and weighs 300
pounds he has a clear eye and an
open countenance. He is retiring
in disposition but ready to accord
any and all an interview or treat
ment. He is a native OF Rockbridge,
having been born between Brows-
burg and Fairfield, As years ago.
He is the son of David Beard and
when 10 years old left the county
for the West where he married.
The wife died years later leaving
six children, two boys and one
girl of whom possess the same won
derful power of electricity in their
systems as the father.
When a young man, living in
this county, his power of magnet
ism was widely known to people
now living, but he was not then
conscious that the magnetism pos
sessed any curative powers. Lo-
Gated in Nashville, Tenn, seyen
years ago, where he now owns a
large infrmiary where treatment is
given patients, it was only by acci-
dent that he discovered that his
electric powers could and would
cure pain and disease IN all its
forms. After the discovery was
made he treated thousands with a
success that was astonishing and
from his practl'e he has accnmu-
lated a large fortune.
The Doctor has been absent
from his native home for 80 years,
and came here to get a rest, but he
has been actively engaged every day
while here. lie has treated hun
dreds in the town and from the
county, with a success that speaks
for itself.
The treatment consists Of a
simple tapping with the hand on
the afflicted parts which produces
a current of electricity from the
doctors body to- that of the patient /;
described by those who have been
in the hands of this human battery
as "burning fire" Every case
treated has been greatly benefited
and some, cases of old standing, in.
flamatory and other kinds Of rheu-
matism, lumbago, govt, neuralgia,
musculare paralysis &c, have been
cured. Prominent people Of the
town have sent for this wonderful
man and have been treated with
astonishing results.
